2.1.x Branch created
by Max Rydahl Andersen
Hi,
In case you missed it in the svn commit logs a branch where created for 2.1.x and CR1 was tagged.
That means if something needs to go into the final 2.1 you need to commit it in the branch too.
Please make sure when you resolve in jira you set the right fix versions! (tip: you can select multiple with Ctrl key ;)

Fix to the build problem
by Rob Stryker
Max:
The fix was simply that we required both patches in order to make it work.
Marshall is on it. I'm going to comment on the eclipse bug.

Export/Import Runtime/Servers?
by Galder Zamarreno
Hi,
Given a JBDS workspace, can Runtime/Servers be imported/exported in case
you need to rebuild your workspace?
Cheers,

Re: 2.1.x Branch created
by Marshall Culpepper
We use a tag from branch. If you have fixes to make, you'll need to make
them on the 2.1.x branch, and then notify me so we can re-tag if necessary
